cant wait to see this movie.But the greatest vampire movie is still and will always be Near Dark.
 
I have yet to see it. Does the dvd come with dubbed audio and subs, or just subs. I should be ok either way.
 
UMMMMMM....no. Haven't scene or read those books. Personally, the last Vampire film I liked was Bram Stroker's Dracula. Nobody can stop Gary Oldman, not even horrible acting by Keanu Reeves.

I can't explain exactly why I didn't care for it. My girlfriend was the one who noted that "it was a better made Twilight".
I Agree, Stoker's Dracula is awesome, won't argue there.

As far as being a 'better made twilight'? Please, far from it, but to each his own I guess.

Ill Jedi has a private boner for Twilight. :lecture
I think you need to call the Viagra Hotline, 'cause it's been long past 4 hours with your boner for me. :rolleyes: And Please don't use the lecture smilie for yourself, it's just lame.

Yeah, Near Dark is bad ass, definitely up there with the best.

Yes it has English audio, I will go back and watch the swedish dub with the subtitles though.

Will definitely check this movie out. I love good Vampire movies! :rock
I think you'll like it, it'll make a great flick to watch for Halloween too! :rock
 
I will probably just end up ordering it from Amazon instead of renting it. Most of my movie collection consists of Horror related movies so I think this one will fit right in. I can't tell you how many times I have watched The Shining, the original Halloween, and Lost Boys over and over again. Renting it would just end up being a waste of time and effort. :lol
 
The film is not out untill April in the UK.
But I was lucky enough to see it a while ago.
I really enjoyed this movie and found the swiming pool scene near the end to be truly shocking. Great acting from the children also.

It was a blind buy for me and a very wise choice!

Is it out now to rent?? I'm going to have to pick this up!!! I love vampire movies :D
Yes!

...I really enjoyed this movie and found the swiming pool scene near the end to be truly shocking...
The Pool scene was BAD ASS, it was shocking and my jaw dropped, too cool.
 
I just literally finished watching this tonight (got it from Netflix this week) and was very impressed! Yes, the ending was shocking but I thought it was totally awesome! :banana
 
First of all, the swimming pool scene is an instant classic. I saw this movie back in October as it was making the rounds between some of my friends and it's a very good movie. While not really scary, it has great atmosphere. The special effects were great for the budget it had and some of the scenes (swimming pool) will stick in my head for a while.
I heard it's going to get the Hollywood treatment soon, so see this before they screw it up.

P.S. - I wonder how many people picked up on what Eli really is. (Besides being a vampire)

Yes, Matt Reeves of Cloverfield has bought the rights to The book.
 
Yes, it's a solid movie, well worth watching.

But let's get this out there right now - the US version is NOT A REMAKE. I'm getting so tired of people not understanding the difference between a remade movie (like Friday the 13th) and another adaptation of a book (like Dracula). The book the film is based on (which I highly recommend reading - it's much better than even the film), is going to be adapted again, and there's a ton of stuff left out of the swedish version that I'm betting gets added in by the American version. There was a lot more around Hakan the familiar that has potential to be very disturbing, and even how Veronica was handled (and what was left out) was a bit disappointing. This is one of those times where I'm actually looking forward to how they might go about it the second time around.

Yea, the Swedish version was moody, but there were sections that were simply overdrawn and dull, and they didn't have to be.

frankly, i doubt the american version will have the balls to touch on some of the book's more controversial aspects. (unless it's by an indie studio) like the paedophilic nature of one of its characters. that's VERY sensitive stuff.

loved the movie. amazing performances by the child actors.
